    3. I to looked at the Census offered. On one surname, I did great, but try and look for a very common name or a name that can be a given name or a surname. I tried looking for the Surname Warren. I got Warren county and the given name Warren, but nowhere did I find the Warren surname. Of course there were over 4,000 hits, but who has time for that. I wrote to them and complained, but you know how much good that will do. How can they charge for this site. Barb Main lines COLE, WARREN & ROBERTS Other names Carrico, Stoneman, Haga, Parks and more http://worldconnect.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=barbnor http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/n/o/r/Barbara-E-Norvell/index.html > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Subject: Re: 1910 Virginia Census > Date: Thu, 12 Oct 2000 22:33:42 -0400 > From: "George Painter" <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > > I visited the Ancestry.com and the 1910 VA census database today for quite a > while.
